Thanks

Got mine at BRS. Not sure I've seen it anywhere else. Maybe find a shop that makes castnets?

BRS is the easiest place to find it. I've never found it anywhere else.

I have had a small pink bar goby get thru. It couldn't get back in thru and dried out

Did you mean Sailor Man? Either way I will check them out if the ones in the garage don't work out. Never thought of a casting net.

Casting net is made to contain very small fish after all lol

went to BOW and bought a 6 ft castnet to cover my 60 in tank,cost about 40$ one big problem,there is a hole in the middle of the net to pull the strings through when net colapses,the netting holes were the right size but you can only use 1/2 the net at the widest point.ordered from BRS

Be careful, cast nets come in a variety of sizes.

And for anyone that uses a cast net. I will happily discard your lead weights for you

Thanks Marvin,

I have a casting net which is made out of monofilament, but the holes are to big. I also have a seine where the holes are small, but it looks like it is made out of some kind of nylon netting. If that makes any sense. The netting is not made of a single thread, but many.

Matt, is yours made of a single monofilament thread or several threads? If it is several, I am wondering how much it will reduce the light? Anyone using this type netting over sps? Opinions?
